i was watching a movie the other day and i could see the distress on the character's face and even the way she sounded. it made her almost, human. i could identify with her for that little moment in time when everythig was going so wrong(welcome to my life). then i remebered, wait, i know how this thing ends, she gets everything she wants. so she's back to being a make believe character. nobody ever gets everything they want, not even the rich brats. oh well back to my 'discovery'. as i kept watching the movie and seeing the poor girl cry her heart out(no! it wasnt a mexican soap! i loathe those things.), i kept thinking, i know how your story ends kiddo. you get your prince charming, win that scholarship and everything will be alright. thats the way of movies and books. you could start reading a book and you know which characters will get together but you read it anyway to see the whole heartbraeking journey in the hope that your own heartbreaking(im using this word loosely here) journey has a happily ever after. everytime i watch a movie or read a book i wish i'd have a fairy godmother whispher to me 'kiddo i know how it ends' and smile for then i would know that my story indeed has a happy ending.
